I don’t think I have ever done anything for this age of children before, a pre-school audience.

Photographic memory is often confused with another bizarre - but real - perceptual phenomenon called eidetic memory, which occurs in between 2 and 15 percent of children and very rarely in adults.

It’s a funny thing - the reality is I have no feelings about school. It’s long gone.

There are three or four left Picture Quote #1

Love is vivid. I never wanted the pale version. Love is full strength. I never wanted the diluted version. I never shied away from love’s hugeness but I had no idea that love could be as reliable as the sun. The daily rising of love Picture Quote #1
